They had one on display at Fords M53 Showroom in Ellesmere Port in 1989. I think it was one of Ford's works rally cars, it wasn't for sale but 80k sounds about right. It's the only one I've ever seen, looking at those pics of it, those tyres look very interesting, at first glance they look to be worn out on the edges, but I think that it's just an unusual tread pattern, not sure what the police would make of it though .

So much for the recession then - guide price now (taken from the link) :

 

 

This car is trully something special, to think that back in the 80's this is what a manufacturer could produce, a proper space framed car with twin shock set up, adjustable 2/4WD with the push of a lever, Intercooler thicker than anything i have ever seen mounted at the top of the car to give full on effective cooling for the turbo, that to be fare was similar in size to wales.

 

Absolutly stunning and left me a bit speachless in these days as if felt like a true masterpiece preserved perfectly for its,

 

!!!!NEW!!!! owner as the car is going up for sale.

 

Any seriously interested buyers in this car please send me your details via PM and i will forward to the owner.

 

Value put on this car is £150,000ono

 

Trust me you won't find a more special example,

There was one at a Ford day at Croft a couple of months ago. The owner took so much pride in telling us how it was completely stock. It looked awesome but I couldnt resist taking that kinda thing on the road every once in a while, I dunno how these people keep them off the road?
